The ConnectAir lets you cast from any USB-C device to any screen. It’s a compact, plug-and-play device with no need for an app, driver, or Wi-Fi. Simply plug the USB-C transmitter into your laptop, tablet, or phone, and plug the HDMI receiver into your TV, monitor, or projector screen to start sharing. The HDMI receiver simply requires access to a USB-A port for power.
You can cast in 1080p resolution at 60Hz, with less than 80ms latency for smooth streaming. It’s intended for use while traveling, at conferences, or in classrooms.
Up to eight people with transmitters can share screens, so you can take turns casting as needed.
The ConnectAir will be available in some markets in Q1 2026, and will cost $150.
